Arctostaphylos glauca, the bigberry manzanita, blooming in the Transverse Ranges in late March.

something something pomme being the youngest and littlest egg of the bunch and yet being the quickest one to react to danger. the one to carry around loads of health potions to toss on to her siblings. to learn fighting skills from her dad. to like her armor to be visible even though it doesn’t have to be anymore. to pull out her scythe and defensively stand next to her older brother when one of his worse nightmares showed up. something something richas saying that his little sister is sometimes not living but just surviving

Pomme has such good combination of parents. Every one supports her in different and important ways.

Baghera provides unyielding support. Showers Pomme with positive affirmations and affection. Pomme is mostly with her and she is a wonderful builder.

Etoiles teaches her how to fight and how to fend for herself. Provides her with the best armor and weapons that even he wants to keep for himself. Loves to fight and go on adventures mostly on the dangerous side.

Aypierre gives her a lot of the good stuff/loot he has to ensure her safety. Builds her a safe and secure home. Also builds cool stuff and contraptions.

Antoine is always there to reassure Pomme whenever bad things happen to her. Someone who Pomme can find comfort in. He teaches her many things about life.

It would be perfect if kameto was still joining and I still hope to see him and spreen back like felps and missa

Kameto went out for cigarettes but I’m sure if he comes back, he’s gonna be the rascal that bullies her and puts her to work looool free child labor lol. But hey, according to slime’s words: it builds character

Love your Wind as a humming bird comic. Any ideas for what the others would change into?? (I think Time as a kitten or something adorable would be funny)

Thank you! Wind as a hummingbird is such a wonderful idea and I have to thank and give credit to @/winkwonkblog for the prompt! I didn't really do Wind as a hummingbird justice when it came to like, drawing him well, but I had fun playing with the idea of it.

As for dark world forms! The fandom's done a great job exploring this and I really like a lot of (at least what I think are?) the more common takes! My preferences have been influenced by all the pieces of fanart, fic, and discussion I've seen - so many pieces that are tried, true, and tested! - so I don't have much to add! I like what the fandom's come up with and enjoy seeing new interpretations. It's a great big collaboration with a bunch of coexisting ideas and I love that.

These are going to be familiar lol (and I'll include some recs too, as one does!)

Time - I agree that Time being a cat or something cute and fuzzy would be funny because it would clash so much with how he's presented in the comic! Let him be something soft and unassuming so he can use it to his advantage for shenanigans! Like Legend though, I think he'd dislike being so fragile. He needs claws or something. To be honest, the hero of time being a golden wolf has never really felt right to me. I see general oot/mm Link as more of an an owl or fox. However, his characterization in LU makes it fit and I appreciate that. It's gotten me to come around to it some.

Twi - Wolfie, yeah

Wild - coyote or deer

Sky - Remlit, goose, or dove (Failure and Fortitude by sister_dear and this art by luwyv, and Untitled Goose Fic by theScrap_Witch)

Warriors - Wars as a weasel or ferret! Something with very nice and pretty fur and very sharp teeth. The thought of Legend holding him up and slinkying him around is amusing. (it's much-too-late'o'clock for me so I get to make up words)

Legend - Rabbit (read this if you haven't !!!-> Not half Pawd by SongMina, as well as Tiny Adventures by Lightning of Farosh)

Four - Hummingbird, mouse, or cat (All of @/chrispy-chimkin's LU Wing AU! Just look at Four!!! Look at him!!! &lt;3 &lt;;3 <3 See also Feline Fatale by Seeking7 and Usagisama68)

Wind - Seagull! (Again, Chris' wing au, but also @/layraket's creatures gang, and A Pear and a Portal by glowingjellyfishtreelights)

Hyrule - I'm not really sure! My joke answer is an okapi. Maybe a badger! idk! he's a dragonfly-winged fairy idk about an animal form for him. A coyote or gray fox, a brown-colored medium sized bird, something like that. Sorry I don't have the most inspired answers haha. I imagine Hyrule's Hyrule (in Zelda 1) as california chaparral so I think he'd be some kind of creature that lives there. I can tell you what kind of tree he'd be!!! Hyrule would be a ribbonwood tree (aka redshanks)! Ribbonwood bounces back quickly after wildfires, with the leaves sprouting again even after being all burned off. The bark that falls away from the tree comes off in strips or "ribbons" that are soft but scratchy and brittle when dried out. that give the tree a kind of whipsy appearance. It's wild and wiggly (I'm all out of adjectives at the moment) and very much a part of the landscape, a piece that ties it all together. The smooth bark underneath is a deep red and cool to the touch. The earthy red and vivid yellowing-green color is suiting. If you cup the leaves in your hands and breathe on them they release a soft rain-like smell. I'm just really passionate about Hyrule and this tree and ecosystem ahsfdhas do you see the low shrubs and parched dirt and the scrambling rocks and the mountains!!! the dry and hot and high altitude and dense shrubbery impassable to find hidden paths through! so much green no stranger to fire!!!!

Arctostaphylos rainbowensis

Plants in the genus Arctostaphylos are commonly known as manzanitas, and California has more species than anywhere else. This one is Arctostaphylos rainbowensis, found in the hills of southern California between San Diego on the south, Los Angeles on the northwest, and Palm Springs on the northeast. The clusters of urn-shaped flowers in shades of white and pink are typical of the genus.
